Chapter 261: Chapter 261: The More I Think, the More Regretful I Feel

The meal was quite enjoyable.

Leng Yebai held a large spoon, constantly keeping an eye on Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Never letting it be empty.

As soon as he finished, it was refilled.

Despite the hot weather, no matter how delicious the food, an appetite is never as good as when the air is cool.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming was the only one who ate from start to finish.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming expressionlessly bowed his head and shoveled the food, struggling to swallow the last bite.

He didn’t feel stuffed, but he could clearly sense that his swallowing was becoming a bit difficult.

It always felt like it was stuck in his throat, making it increasingly hard to swallow.

“Burp, Brother Zhang, you’re amazing!”

Bai Yifan burped contently, looking at Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming with admiration.

Eats more than his sister, truly worthy of being a Zombie Emperor!

Leng Yebai’s eyebrows twitched slightly upon seeing Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming’s bowl empty again.

He decisively scooped a full spoonful, ready to send it into Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming’s bowl.

Crack~

The bowl in Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming’s hand shattered into several pieces.

Leng Yebai raised an eyebrow and calmly said, “Your appetite is much smaller than last time.”

Last time, he forgot how many times he scooped into the bowl, but it was definitely more than this time!

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming: …

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming was speechless, taking a deep breath, trying to soothe his body and mind.

Despite being a zombie, when he saw the man in front of him, Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming still felt a faint pain in his temples.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan and Middle-aged Liu Jing stared at Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming in shock.

They felt that the Zombie Emperor was a bit different from the rumors.

The Zombie Emperor before them seemed somewhat not very intelligent.

After the meal, the sun had reached its peak in the sky.

The scorching rays baked the earth, making it feel like being trapped inside a steamer.

Bai Xiqin looked at the sizzling streets, furrowing her brows slightly.

The hotter the weather, the easier bacteria and viruses spread. If an epidemic were to break out now, survival would be tougher for the human survivors.

Viruses and bacteria mostly come from rotting corpses.

Rotting corpses are everywhere, a virus spread would be uncommon.

In the three years Bai Xiqin lived through the apocalypse, she never heard of any major epidemics.

Not hearing about it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

Bai Xiqin sighed softly, a trace of melancholy on her face.

Her family surviving isn’t a problem; with the space available, they live quite freely.

However, humans are social animals.

If all survivors were to perish, living alone in the space would be quite meaningless.

Just staying within the space, information becomes increasingly limited. People shouldn’t just live in their own circle.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming looked towards Bai Xiqin, the bright sunlight shining on her face. He couldn’t see her smile, only her face with a trace of worry.

Following her melancholy gaze, Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming looked towards the street.

Abandoned cars littered the streets, blackened blood congealed on the ground. Even without the sense of smell, he could guess the air reeked of decay.

Such a world, she likely didn’t like it!

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming slowly closed his eyes, visions of the beautiful student life and post-apocalyptic hellscape flashed in his mind.

Two extremes intertwined before his eyes.

Anyone could see, the pre-apocalyptic scenes were the best world.

But, there’s no going back.

This damned apocalypse has warped everything beyond recognition.

Back then, his student days were coming to an end, full of hope, like many students leaving school, he planned to bid farewell to the girl he loved at graduation.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming mockingly curled his lips.

They say zombies have no thoughts, only bloodthirsty monsters.

Why does he always feel the pain of heartbreak?

Regret over past actions…

If only he’d been braver, expressed his feelings sooner, could it have been…?

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming gloomily glanced at Leng Yebai.

He knew Xiao Niu longer than him.

In remorse, there’s a sense of fortune.

Fortunately, he hadn’t expressed his feelings early.

Otherwise, becoming a zombie, how could he accompany her?

“Boom!”

From two streets away, the sound of an explosion echoed.

In the apocalypse, the sound of explosions doesn’t seem rare.

If it’s not someone’s gas tank, it’s someone’s transformer that broke.

This explosion, however, sounded somewhat like a grenade.

Grenades, Bai Xiqin had many in her space, she’d used them to blow up zombies, the sound was unmistakable.

“Let’s go and have a look!”

Bai Xiqin stood up, gently sweeping aside her bangs.

Always overthinking leads to depression.

Bai Xiqin was never a girl who liked to complicate things; hearing the commotion on the street, Bai Xiqin instantly became interested again.

In the apocalypse, danger implies gains.

Having a look around there might yield some good finds!

“I’ll go with you!”

Leng Yebai stood up, naturally walking beside Bai Xiqin.

“Me too!”

Bai Yifan also stood up.

Bai Yifan usually doesn’t like crowds, but accompanying his sister, his safety factor leaps significantly.

Adventuring didn’t seem so scary.

“What are you doing? Go cut up some fruit!”

Wang Yiyun smiled, glancing at Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai’s backs, pulling the big bother Bai Yifan aside.

Leng Yebai had been with the Bai Family for quite some time now, and with these days of interaction, the Bai Family were pleased with a son-in-law.

However, between Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin, it seemed like a couple, yet not close enough.

According to Wang Yiyun’s conclusion, probably too many people are involved, a whole family crowded together that doesn’t allow them to properly date.

So, if they could have some time alone, who knows, she might get grandkids faster.

“…Alright!”

Bai Yifan rubbed his nose, walking towards the bus.

Middle-aged Liu Jing and Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan, after eating, apart from watching Zombie Emperor, chatted with Bai Anhai.

They discussed everything under the sun.

Bai Zhengxuan and Liu Jing squinted, enjoying the warm breeze in the shade.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming glanced at Bai Xiqin’s direction and abruptly stood up, striding after her.

Wang Yiyun watched Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming’s figure, her eyes flickered, full of regret.

Wang Yiyun could vaguely guess some of Zhang Yiming’s thoughts.

However, her daughter already chose Leng Yebai, Leng Yebai offered so many supplies back then, Zhang Yiming was a step late.

Wang Yiyun sighed deeply, if only having a Zombie Emperor as a son-in-law.

That would be rather convenient!

At the very least, she could put makeup on zombies whenever she wanted!

She could pick zombies freely, tall or short, fat or thin, old or ugly or young, all possible!

The more she thought, the more Wang Yiyun felt regretful.

While Wang Yiyun felt regret, Liu Jing also shook her head regretfully.

Her point of regret slightly differed from Wang Yiyun’s.

If she had a Zombie Emperor as a grandson-in-law, she could dissect any zombie she wanted!

Who knows, maybe someday dissect the Zombie Emperor…

The more she thought, the more regret.
